Ye Yuwei was lost for words .
Was her head some kind of switch?
Gu Juexi seemed to enjoy playing with her head .
Nalan Jing touched the cup with his long and slender fingers . “I didn’t intend to disrupt your life, but it was you who did not forgive her . You did not even allow her to rest in peace . ”
Nalan Jing was clearly referring to Ye Di . They did not have to guess .
So Gu Juexi and Ye Yuwei’s assumptions were right . Nalan Jing did appear because of that .
He might have never appeared in front of them if that incident never happened .
“Chairman Gu lives in the same world as me . You know very well how exhausting it is to live in that kind of world . Those three years when I pretended to be you and lived by her side were my most peaceful years . ”
Nalan Jing was staring at the tea inside the cup the whole time, but he also seemed to be looking at his fingers too .
Ye Yuwei glanced at Gu Juexi again . That story might be very long and hold the answers they wanted .
“She’s a smart woman . She realized that I wasn’t you in the second year I pretended to be you . She’s very kind too . ”
“Kind?” Gu Tianmu laughed coldly . ‘Wasn’t she the one who made Wen Jie ill?’
Ye Yuwei held her hands tightly when she heard Gu Tianmu’s laughter . She had been thinking of Wen Jie’s illness too .
Gu Juexi reached out and grabbed Ye Yuwei’s hand, then placed a soft kiss on her forehead . “Nobody knows your aunt as well as Nalan Jing . He’s telling the truth . You should trust him . ”
Ye Yuwei nodded and looked at Gu Juexi gratefully . He said that for her sake .
Ye Yuwei squeezed Gu Juexi’s hand tightly .
“She might have done something wrong . She was a stubborn person, that’s why she was so easily used by someone else . She should be held responsible for Mrs . Gu’s illness . You only saw her wrongdoing, but you did not see how she sacrificed everything for her medical experiments in those three years . You also did not see how she placed a present carefully outside of Gu Mansion on Mrs . Gu’s birthday and quickly left after that . You also never saw how she endured all her elder brother’s reproaches silently and helplessly because of the misunderstanding between them,” Nalan Jing spoke slowly, then laughed out loud . It was unclear whether it was out of sarcasm or grief .
Ye Yuwei’s body tensed when she heard it, and she lowered her gaze slightly . She seemed to see the image of the young girl reflected in the yellowish liquid in the cup in front of her . It seemed that she could learn from her . She saw the young girl standing outside of Gu Mansion alone . She also saw how the hysterical elder brother scolded his younger sister because of what had happened .
She lowered her head and stood there from the beginning till the end . She did not struggle to explain or argue with what was said to her .
It was because she had indeed done something wrong . Hence, she could not defend herself .
“All of you have forgotten that she was only eleven years old that year . She was still at the age where the line between good and bad was blurred . ” Nalan Jing laughed coldly and turned the cup in his hand softly . “She’s much younger than me, but she lived a much more terrible life . She went out of her way to cure Wen Jie’s illness . She just wanted a chance for herself . A chance to apologize to both her brother and Wen Jie . ”
Ye Yuwei covered her mouth with her hand . She could not allow herself to make a sound .
